Sort out array
The array
package is in a rather sad state of affairs:
- There is a GitHub repository but no one has push access to it and its description is "WORK-IN-PROGRESS / DO NOT USE YET"
- It's unclear who can actually push to this repository
- It's unclear who other than @hvr can push new releases to Hackage
- The latest version on Hackage still claims that Trac is the issue tracker
Given that array
's upstream has historically been git.haskell.org, it seems that the official upstream is currently ghc/packages/array>. We should:
-
either delete the GitHub repository or make it a mirror, clarifying its status in the repository description -
fix upstream information in array
's cabal file -
push a new release to Hackage -
ensure that the Hackage maintainer list has a bus factor of > 1
